    I am a fan of old school striping, and of "less is more".

    That really looks great! Tastefully done.

    Who layed down the lines for ya?

    PS: I'm likin' the gun rack too!

    The artist is Raliegh Parker, out of Lynchburg,VA Does all kinda signs and striping. He did my welding helmet last year so i could see how good he was and as soon as my '48 was ready i called him over.

    Thanx Lakeroaster, the gunrack came in the truck when i bought it 11 years ago. (cant gettm like that anymore).

    Nate,
    that big sign is a 1939, 2 sided hanging sign that is reflective tape . the reason it is on my wall is because the one side is burnt up from the weather. It was removed from a barn near me with 3 other ones as roof panels so only one side survived. Love them bowties
